Southern Wild is a beautifully maintained 2018 Lagoon 40 designed by Van Peteghem / Lauriot-Prévost. Their approach blends comfort with performance, and this yacht reflects that balance in every area. Built in Bordeaux, France, this three-stateroom, two-head model shows continuous care and smart upgrades.
Electrical
Power comes from twin Yanmar 4JH45 diesels with 1,465 hours. The engines pair with upgraded folding props for better handling and fuel efficiency. A Fischer Panda 10kW generator supports life at anchor. In addition, the boat carries (3) Kilovault 900AH lithium batteries, a Victron 3000W inverter/charger (2024), four 245W solar panels, and a SeaWater Pro 17 GPH watermaker. Together, these systems create an easy, reliable, and highly independent power setup.
Recent Upgrades
Several recent upgrades add even more value. You will find a new foresail (Aug 2025), new trampoline (2024), Triton Oddysea bottom paint (Oct 2024), Shadowcaster underwater lights, and fresh-water electric heads (2021). New sanitation lines were also installed in 2024. Each improvement increases comfort, durability, or safety, which makes this Lagoon 40 stand out among similar models.
Hull & Deck
The cockpit offers a warm and social space. It includes a custom teak table, a full helm and cockpit enclosure, a Weber LPG BBQ, and upgraded chrome davits. A Highfield tender and 2021 9.8hp Tohatsu outboard (about 200 hours) round out the package. At anchor, the Rocna 55 lb primary anchor, Danforth secondary, and Quick windlass with chain counter provide strong holding power and easy operation.
Interior
Inside, the bright interior feels open and inviting. A Samsung 32” Smart TV (2024), Fusion Bluetooth audio, and new chrome touch-activated reading lights with USB ports (2024) enhance the living space. Four Dometic A/C units and a Quick water heater maintain comfort in all seasons. Natural light flows throughout the cabin, which creates an airy and relaxing atmosphere.
Southern Wild ranks among the best-equipped Lagoon 40 catamarans available today. Her 2024–2025 upgrades, detailed maintenance records, and fresh September 2025 survey give buyers confidence from day one. Whether your plans include the East Coast, the Bahamas, or longer passages, this yacht is ready to cruise with ease, beauty, and efficiency.
